Jiang Yunxu waited for more than an hour at Tianfu Inn, and as expected, a young man arrived.
The man stood at the door, with a hint of defensiveness in his tone: "Master wants you to come over as soon as possible."
He looked up and down at Jiang Yunxu in front of him, a handsome young man who looked young. How could he have such a powerful folk remedy?
It must be obtained by using means.
Jiang Yunxu saw through the man's thoughts at a glance. She explained: "I'm not here to study medicine."
Having been exposed, the young man looked a little embarrassed, and then the two of them returned to the drug store together.
Different from the first meeting, the old man's attitude towards her has completely changed.
"Where did you get this prescription?"
Jiang Yunxu whispered: "I wrote it myself."
Unexpectedly, the old man's face suddenly changed and he said angrily: "Nonsense, you are a young man, not very old. This prescription requires at least several decades of medical skills to prepare it."
After he took the medicine with some hesitation, he felt much better.
There are only subtle changes, which are already rare.
If you drink this prescription for a long time, you will definitely get more relief.
"Old man, don't judge people by their appearance. If you don't believe me, just test me."
Jiang Yunxu was not angry, but was very humble. She knew that the old man in front of her had some real abilities.
The old man was not polite. He opened his mouth and asked the question. Jiang Yunxu only thought about it for a moment and was able to answer it without missing a beat.
He took more than a dozen tests in a row and became more and more sophisticated, but Jiang Yunxu was not stumped.
In this way, the old man believed her words and looked at her with light in his eyes.
"How about I accept you as my apprentice?"
Jiang Yunxu was slightly stunned, and kowtowed to the old man without saying a word: "Master is here, please bow to me as a disciple."
The old man has been treating people all his life and has many apprentices. Just now he gave Jiang Yunxu a hard time and told him some weird and difficult diseases. Jiang Yunxu was brave and careful, but he still retained a trace of kindness.
He will never misjudge anyone.
The old man raised his hand to help Jiang Yunxu stand up: "Come with me."
Although the young man on the side was a little unhappy when he saw this, he was convinced in his heart. Jiang Yunxu's answers just now made him feel ashamed that he was not as good as others after studying medicine for ten years.
Maybe this is the difference.
In the next two days, Jiang Yunxu worked from dawn to dusk to learn Gu from the old master. In fact, she knew a little bit about it herself, but she encountered some bottlenecks and had not yet broken through. After studying with the old man for two days, she immediately became enlightened.
Even the old man admired him very much.
Jiang Yunxu took some more medicine and planned to perform surgery on Master to remove the fluid accumulation and stones in the bone seams.
Exactly two hours later, the old man opened his eyes from the anesthesia. He was shocked and raised his hand. His rough hand was much softer. It was not as hard, big and swollen as before. The slightest movement would cause heart-breaking pain.
.
"This is the prescription I left behind. Master must take it on time."
Jiang Yunxu glanced at Tianse again and was about to leave. Unexpectedly, the old man grabbed Jiang Yunxu.
"I have a daughter who is very beautiful and is not yet married at the age of sixteen. Can you take her with you?"
Jiang Yunxu was embarrassed.
"She has been naughty since she was a child. I may not be able to protect her when I get older. I can rest assured if she stays with you."
The old man had long seen that Jiang Yunxu was a girl, so he thought of entrusting his daughter to her.
"After decades of raising Gu, I have accumulated too many enemies. I don't want to implicate her. I just want her to live in peace and find a down-to-earth husband to marry."
Faced with the old man's sudden request, Jiang Yunxu pondered for a moment, and she truthfully confessed: "It may not be safe to stay with me. After all, I also have many enemies."
It was true. There were so many people in the capital who wanted her dead. She was always worried and she might not have the energy to protect another person.
But faced with the old man's prayer, she suddenly softened her heart: "How about this, I take her away and go to the shop in the capital to continue selling medicinal materials anonymously."
Staying with me is absolutely impossible.
The old man agreed after a little hesitation.
After a while, a girl came in from behind the curtain, and Jiang Yunxu looked at her with surprise in her eyes.
The woman is wearing a light white dress, with a small oval face, delicate and picturesque facial features, and a graceful body. Her whole person has a cool and noble sense of beauty. Even if this face is placed in front of Jiang Yaner and Princess Xiangya
No less impressive.
"From today on, you can follow Senior Sister Yun." The old man handed the woman to Jiang Yunxu.
Jiang Yunxu felt helpless. Such a face would definitely attract criticism in the capital, and it would never stop.
"Senior Sister Yun's accent sounds like she's from the capital, right?" the woman suddenly asked.
Jiang Yunxu raised his eyebrows and nodded with a vague intuition.
The woman's name was Sang Lian. She asked again: "I want to go to Duke Zhao's Mansion. Can Senior Sister Yun arrange for me to go there, even as a maid?"
"Sang Lian!" the old man shouted in a low voice, then shook his head and looked at Jiang Yunxu with hopeful eyes.
The Duke of Zhao's mansion was very kind to her and helped her several times. At the moment, she didn't know whether Sang Lian was a good person or a bad person. She didn't have the right to agree directly.
Seeing her hesitation, the old man said: "Her mother is in the Zhao Guogong's mansion. She is Zhao Qianru, the third aunt of the Zhao Guogong's mansion."
Jiang Yunxu swallowed his throat and waved his hands: "I am just an ordinary person. The family of Zhao Guogong's house is too high. How can I send people to Zhao Guogong's house?"
There were too many grievances and grievances in the Gaomen mansion, and she didn't want to get involved. Unexpectedly, the old man said: "Once you drink the mother-of-pearl poison you mentioned, it will take a medicine to induce the blood in the body."
Purify it thoroughly, otherwise, if it is not removed thoroughly, the mother-in-law Gu will still breed again."
The old man seemed to have been prepared. He turned over and found a white porcelain bottle from a box, holding it high.
"If you can find her from the capital, you must be of high status. I can't stay in Henan any longer. The only thing I care about is this daughter."
It turned out that the old man had long seen through Jiang Yunxu's high status, and after some contact, he decided that Jiang Yunxu must have a way to help Sang Lian.
Jiang Yunxu pursed her lips tightly.
This old man actually kept a secret. Sure enough, there is nothing good in this world without a reason.
Before, it was her own fault.
"Okay! I can give it a try." Jiang Yunxu was forced to agree because of the medicine introduction, and then watched helplessly as the old man handed the porcelain bottle to Sang Lian.
Sang Lian took the medicine into her arms again, which made it clear that she didn't want to give it to her.
Jiang Yunxu took a deep breath, tried to maintain a calm tone, and agreed with Sang Lian to meet at the capital.
"good."
After leaving the medicine shop, Jiang Yunxu came back with a livid face. He held the teapot and drank more than half of the cup before stopping.
"What's wrong?" Chu Xuanzhi heard the noise and came over.
Jiang Yunxu did not hide anything, and directly told the matter word for word: "This Sang Lian is extremely beautiful, and she is said to be Zhao Qianru's daughter, but who is Zhao Qianru?"
"She is the eldest daughter of Mrs. Zhao Guogong. She married to Kangzhou City a few years ago. Her husband's family suffered a disaster, and she was brought back by Zhao Guogong's mansion. She has been raised in the mansion and has not seen any outsiders for a long time."
Chu Xuanzhi's impression of this third aunt of the Zhao family was that he had seen her once or twice when he was a child.
A very beautiful woman, just sitting there, is a sight to behold, making people unable to help but take a second look.
"It doesn't matter. I will send someone to deliver a letter to the Duke of Zhao about this matter. You don't have to take it to heart."
Chu Xuanzhi didn't blame her.
But Jiang Yunxu felt that there was something strange about this matter, and he couldn't tell what was wrong.
"I've been delayed for three days, so it's time to go back."
She was also worried about Anping Temple's Hongqiao.
"Um!"
The group left Henan in the evening, one hurried back to the temple and the other hurried back to the capital.
Jiang Yunxu took advantage of the night to return to the temple safely. When Hong Qiao saw her coming, she quickly looked up and down: "Master, are you okay?"
"Don't worry, everything is fine with me, how about you?"
Hongqiao shook her head: "There are constant little troubles, but I am very cautious and do not show any flaws."
She didn't need to say anything, Jiang Yunxu knew that there would be no peace, and there must be many people who wanted to cause trouble.
"Thanks a lot."
Hong Qiao raised her lips and smiled: "Master, what are you talking about? Without you, this slave would not be here today. Besides, isn't this a good slave?"
The master and the servant briefly exchanged a few words, and then listening to the footsteps on the eaves, Hongqiao pointed to a cabinet behind her: "Master, don't be afraid, I will protect you."
With a creak, the window was pushed open, and it was Chu Xuanzhi who barged in. He grabbed Jiang Yunxu and said, "Let's go first."
Upon seeing this, Hong Qiao immediately followed, formed a semi-surround with Yin Feng and Yin Lei, and protected the two people from leaving.
In the fighting along the way, there were flashes of swords and shadows. It was impossible to see who was who in the dark night. She could only vaguely see a few figures passing by. Chu Xuangzhi helped her get into the carriage and drove the carriage away quickly.
"How many people are there on the other side?" she asked.
Chu Xuanzhi didn't hide it: "More than three hundred."
Jiang Yunxu took a breath, a little worried about Hong Qiao's safety. As soon as she turned around, she was picked up again and sat on the horse again, with the wind whistling in her ears.
, almost out of breath.
She could still hear the sound of arrows whizzing past her ears. She didn't even dare to breathe. She arched her waist and held the reins tightly with both hands, for fear of being thrown out at once.
She didn't remember how long it took, but just when she felt she was about to jolt to death, the horse finally stopped slowly.
Jiang Yunxu was in a limp state. She was helped out of the carriage by Chu Xuanzhi. She was a little dizzy, as if she had found a pillar and was holding on to it to stand firm.
"Hongqiao...where's Hongqiao?"
Chu Xuanzhi looked at Jiang Yunxu's embarrassed look, sighed helplessly, and patted her back gently: "Don't worry, Hongqiao is fine."
"Really?"
She raised her head and looked at him with wet eyes, half convinced. There were more than 300 people, and no matter how powerful Hong Qiao was, she couldn't defeat one against a hundred.
"My king has laid an ambush a long time ago, and there are reinforcements."
Listening to his explanation, Jiang Yunxu felt much more relaxed, and it took him a long time to relax.
This was her first time riding a horse in such a long life, and the bumps were like riding a roller coaster to her.
The ups and downs are too great.
Jiang Yunxu secretly made up his mind to practice equestrian skills hard when he returns home, so that he can really save his life at a critical moment.
After waiting for about half an hour, Hongqiao rushed back. She was slightly injured and her clothes were torn a lot.
"Master, are you okay?" Hongqiao rushed over and looked her up and down.
Jiang Yunxu shook his head: "Everything is fine with me."
She had now fully recovered and asked, "Do you know who those people are?"
"Three waves of forces, Prime Minister Jiang's Mansion, Chu Youqi, and Princess Xiangya's people, come several times a day to assassinate the master."
Jiang Yunxu frowned when he heard this. Prime Minister Jiang's house was fine. After all, it was a blood feud and it was a dead end.
But was Chu Youqi out of his mind? He provoked himself and Princess Xiangya again and again, assassinating her twice in just a few days.
Are you really treating yourself as a soft persimmon and can be pinched as much as you want?
That’s not true!
Jiang Yunxu supported Hongqiao and looked up at the sky. It was almost dawn.
"Princess Xiangya is the direct princess in Xiangya. She has a distinguished status and is very favored. She has an unruly personality and few dare to disobey her. If Princess Xiangya really has any shortcomings, the emperor will not let you off easily."
Chu Xuanzhi reminded him loudly.
This was to tell her that Princess Xiangya could not die.
Jiang Yunxu took a deep breath, and a bold idea suddenly came to her mind. She had already grasped Princess Xiangya's nature, and how could she control her?
"I have a clear understanding of this matter."
So after returning to the capital, there was suddenly another son of a noble family in the capital. A handsome young man with a jade crown on his head, an extraordinary temperament, and a round fan in his hand turned into a distant relative of Zhao Guogong's family. He also changed his name to Zhao Guogong.
meaning.
Zhao Huaiyu, the eldest son of Duke Zhao, looked at Zhao Yi in front of him and felt something familiar.
This handsome face is particularly attractive.
"Prince Zhao."
As soon as he opened his mouth, Zhao Huaiyu was stunned. He hesitated for a long time without speaking, almost stammering.
"You are Jiang Yunxu!"
Jiang Yunxu did not deny it and nodded.
"Is your face healed?" Zhao Huaiyu looked at Jiang Yunxu's flawless little face and was very surprised.
Jiang Yunxu touched his face and took off the imitation human skin mask. The scarred face was still there under the mask.
Zhao Huaiyu was a little disappointed and shrugged: "You should put on a mask, at least it will look pleasing to the eye."
Hearing this, Jiang Yunxu rolled his eyes inwardly, he is another person who judges people by their appearance.
"Prince Zhao, do you still remember the three things you promised me when you first sought medical treatment?"
Zhao Huaiyu nodded immediately: "If a gentleman keeps his word, he will naturally remember it."
Immediately, Jiang Yunxu began to give orders without politeness, asking Zhao Huaiyu to help take her to various places to get familiar with her, and to set off Zhao Yi's identity, especially in front of Princess Xiangya.
"It's not difficult. A hunting banquet will be held in the capital in three days. I will create a chance for you to be a hero and save the beauty, and then severely humiliate Chu Youqi."
These words directly touched Jiang Yunxu's heart, and he immediately nodded with a smile: "A boy can be taught."
